yeah, you keep it for 10 yrs, and when you open it and find out you got duped you'll have forgotten who you bought them from. There are a lot of stupid people out there.....and this is without even getting into a discussion on politics.

there is 1 CC at least. These rolls are for people with expendable income.

Amazing, there just happens to be a cc reverse showing (bu at that) on almost all of his rolls. Funny thing is the feedback. Everybody seems very pleased.

You guys are brutal. The guys got 100% feedback, stellar DSRs, and a very recent positive for one of these rolls that went for over 7K. All positive on these rolls in fact. Yet you still jump to the conclusion that he must be a crook. Quite pitiful if you ask me.

It may be a gamble to some extent, but $300 a coin isn't all that bad. You know you're getting at least 1 CC and the toning on the top coin is unbelievable. That toning alone would bring a huge premium. Plus you have the thrill of opening one of these rolls. If I had the money I would probably pick one up. I may be missing something, and perhaps he does some how just roll these himself, I don't know, but with positive feedback from similar rolls, I think that is less likely.

since you mentioned that toning... THAT is what has me skeptical about this whole thing. I thought these rolls were pretty legit until I saw that monster toning. It looks artificial to me, but I could be way off. That $7000 roll was due to the DMPL coin on the end which was very impressive in the photos. The feedback is great, so it sounds like this guy is on the up-and-up. The rolls of "old nickels" from another seller, however, with a Shield nickel on one end and a V nickel on the other end. Those are trash - full of common buffaloes.

Great feedback proves nothing, I've seen crackout-artists with the 'top rated seller' label.

I love how he photographs the roll so you don't even have a chance at guessing the date. Nice angle!

I think $300+ per coin sight unseen per morgan absolutely nuts. Even if they were all CCs, the common ones only go for $150-$200 in MS-63, where common date non-CC will be $40-$50. Obviously people have bought these rolls and were happy(unless they were shills), but I don't get it. Maybe if a TPG certified it as an original bank roll, I'd feel better about it.

one of the listings you can see the reflection of the greysheet in the background...not sure what that can insinuate.. anyway, if I had some money to burn I may buy it... and then report exactly what I found..

if peope didnt still believe in santa clause, these types of auctions would go the way of the dinosaurs, these sellers play on peoples hopes of "getting rich quick" and there are plenty of those people.

One other thing that bugs me just a little. The "Carson City State Trust Bank", as printed on the bank roll, never existed. It's basically at 4K now...kinda crazy!
